You need time together now that you're both home with the kids. It's quite counterintuitive but then, so is the mumps vaccine. In fact, many things that definitely make life better are the opposite of what you might expect. We've been working from home since just before the adoption of our only child, 7.5 years ago. We're the happiest couple I know. We take a date night every week whether we need it or not. No work talk is allowed. Good luck! Get help with the kids..

Dh's parents offered to babysit so he and I could have some time together yesterday. We used it (separately) to caulk and to dig up a tree so I'm not one to talk, but meetings/dates will be a very good thing.
